A case of psoriatic arthritis of both temporomandibular joints is described with a brief review of the literature and discussion on the management of this condition. To date, psoriatic arthritis has been successfully treated by conservative means. In the case reported, surgical replacement of the condyles became necessary to eliminate pain and restore function.
